This 1962 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe is finished in red over black vinyl and is powered by a replacement 327ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes the Super Sport equipment group, power-assisted steering, Rally wheels, coil spring suspension, a push-button AM radio, and a Pioneer CD player mounted in the glovebox. The car was refurbished under previous ownership, and was acquired by the selling dealer in December 2021. This Impala is offered at no reserve with transferable New York registration.
The pillarless hardtop was originally finished in Roman Red, and was repainted during the refurbishment under previous ownership. Details include quadruple headlights, engine-turned aluminum side and rear trim inserts, tinted glass, dual rear antennas, SS badging, and an exhaust outlet under each rear fender.
Painted steel 14″ Rally wheels with chrome hubcaps and trim rings wear BFGoodrich Radial T/A blackwall tires. Suspension includes coil springs at each corner, and braking is supplied by unassisted drums front and rear.
The interior features black vinyl upholstery along with a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Amenities include front bucket seats with chrome trim, vent windows, a push-button AM radio in the dashboard, and a Pioneer CD player in the glovebox.
A two-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a horizontal 120-mph speedometer, an electric clock, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 32k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 327ci V8 is fitted with a four-barrel carburetor, a K&N air filter, an alternator, and a dual exhaust system.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with synchromesh.
